How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 460,373,168?

Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the factors of larger numbers. To find the factors of the number 460,373,168, it is easiest to start from the outside in. Here's what we mean:

Outside in Factoring

We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table.

1 460,373,168

Next, we take the number 460,373,168 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 460,373,168 ÷ 2 = 230,186,584

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 230,186,584 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 230,186,584 460,373,168

Now, we try dividing 460,373,168 by 3.

460,373,168 ÷ 3 = 153,457,722.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 153,457,722.6667 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 230,186,584 460,373,168

Let's try dividing by 4.

460,373,168 ÷ 4 = 115,093,292

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 115,093,292 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 4 115,093,292 230,186,584 460,373,168

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 460,373,168 ÷ 5 is a whole number, then 5 and your quotient are factors of the number.


Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.


What you will end up with is this table:

12481628,773,32357,546,646115,093,292230,186,584460,373,168

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 460,373,168.
